  • Help spread Digital Literacy to remote areas
  • DTU students will provide study tours, lecture

Focused subjects

What does this vehicle will carry?

  • Vehicle hosts Computers, TVs, 3D printer,  one laptop, cameras and one printer
  • It will be Wi-Fi enabled, with 100 per cent power back up and fully air-conditioned.

Coverage of schools  & working of the bus

  • It will  initially target 12 schools. The bus will function in three shifts of three hours each from 8 am to 11 am, 11 am to 2 pm and 2 pm to 5 pm
  • One school will be visited once a week, and continuously for eight weeks
  • Each shift will have two volunteers (DTU students) teaching 16 students if it’s a computer lab, or 25 students if it’s regular classroom teaching.
